Lemon Fin Barb
Jewel colours, sticky toes and splashy secrets from water-world! Come and meet Lemon Fin Barb — a treasured resident of our tropical sanctuary in Epping. Stand quietly, watch closely, and you might spot a blink, a stretch, or a cheeky scramble that makes you fall in love in five seconds flat. Behind every smile is a story. Animals like Lemon Fin Barb often arrive because a home changed, a rescue needed space, or someone realised wild beauty deserves expert care. We promise warmth, the right food, enrichment and keepers who know each personality. When a child presses their nose to the glass and whispers ‘hello’, that second chance becomes a lifelong memory — for them and for Lemon Fin Barb. Barbodes is a genus of small to medium-sized cyprinid fish native to tropical Asia. The majority of the species are from Southeast Asia. Many species are threatened and some from the Philippines are already extinct. Adults often remember: Genus of fishes. At Get To Know Animals we turn those wild facts into daily care — the right heat, humidity, UV where needed, climbing or digging space, and food that matches what Lemon Fin Barbs evolved to eat. It costs over £35,000 every month to feed, heat and care for 300+ animals. Filters, heaters, water treatments, live plants and precise diets keep aquatic rooms alive 24/7 — quiet weeks at the till still mean full electricity and food costs. Adopting Lemon Fin Barb, sponsoring a meal, funding the wish list or joining Patreon isn’t ‘extra’ — it’s how Lemon Fin Barb eats next Tuesday when the weather is quiet and the till is slow. You can help today: adopt Lemon Fin Barb, buy a treat, play Get To Feed Animals, or become a monthly patron. Every pound is love you can measure in full bowls, warm lamps and wagging (or flicking) tails.
